As we incorporate more renewable energy into New York's energy mix, we also much upgrade our grid to accommodate larger electricity loads. One way we're doing this is by installing Dynamic Line Rating (DLR) technology. DLR enables us to deliver more clean energy with greater efficiency by providing real-time data that our operators can use to maximize line capacity and safely move power to where it is needed most, especially during extreme weather. We recently deployed Line Vision’s DLR on four 115kV transmission lines in Western New York. This is the largest operationalization of an innovative line rating technology in the United States and the first in New York. As utilities think about increased electric demand as part of the clean energy transition, DLR is a gamechanger for ensuring that supply is moving where it is needed as efficiently as possible. National Grid is proud to work with companies that share our dedication to accelerating a stronger, smarter, and cleaner energy system. This project is an exciting step forward, and we look forward to building on this progress to develop the infrastructure necessary for a sustainable future.

“There is no transition without transmission” and “sweating grid assets” in this way is a great way to do more with less. Better value to the rate payer too. Good work National Grid & LineVision.
